Facial Reconstruction Reno NV

Skin cancer is, unfortunately, very common in Northern Nevada. Removal of skin cancers are very common on the face and can result in defects that require careful reconstruction. Dr. Yamamoto often reconstructs sensitive locations like the eyelid, nose, ear, and lip to create the best possible appearance and minimize visible scarring. Understanding the intricate anatomy and contours of the face are essential in excellent reconstruction outcomes.

Super friendly staff, nice office, and Dr Yamamoto is collaborative, efficient, and very open and straightforward. It’s great to have a doctor who is open about the pros and cons of each treatment so you can make a good decision. I highly recommend.

Scar Revision

Some scars on the face can be very noticeable and bothersome to your appearance. The good news is that many scars can be revised to be less visible and better blend into the contours of your face. Depending on the size, shape, and location of your scar, different options are available to give you the best possible result.

Options for scar revision include laser remodeling, surgical remodeling, and injection of anti-scar medications. A consultation with Dr. Yamamoto will help you determine which options are best for you.

Patient Testimonials

“Dr. Y is the BEST! I am beyond happy! The Plumb Ln office is perfect! Dr Y, Marta, and Tori are fantastic and I am lucky to be a client. I met Dr. Y for a botox consult, fell in love with him and booked an appt, and the results were the most accurate I've had (uneven eyebrows). He is a great listener and takes the time needed to understand what you want and explain what he can do. I trusted him with a chin implant/lipo procedure and the results are beyond my wildest dreams. This man has skills and a great personality!”
